hen the teacher asks him to do something. He will tell the the teacher she hurt his feelings and pouts till she does something about it.
Statement Of Educational Needs For A Child With Adhd?
We have an 8 year old son with a diagnosis of ADHD and is on medication (Concerta). We about to put in for a statement for him, but know its going to be a long hard fight to be heard. There is no help for children with ADHD because people think they are just badly behaved and its the way the parents are bringing them up. We would like to ask is there anyone who has been through this process of statementing with an ADHD child without the support of school. I get so cross, as if my child had a physical disability he would be heard more easily, there are so many charity organizations for disabilities so why not for ADHD. Its about time this country recognised ADHD is a health condition and not bad behaviour.
